Top Bad Essen Hotel Reviews

Prize By Radisson, Osnabruck

8/10 Good

"The hotel is conveniently located near the main train station but walkable to the old city and the university. The room is small but modern and clean. The breakfast is very good. Staff are very friendly and helpful."

Holiday Inn Osnabrueck by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely check-in staff who were very friendly and helpful and also on check out. Great brekkie and lovely restaurant staff in the morning. Just a stopover in Osnabrück but will go back."

Sunday Hotel Bielefeld Johannisberg

8/10 Good

"Taily change of uses glasses and cups"

STAYERY Osnabrück City - stylish Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was clean, comfortable, and great spacious with a complete kitchen: stove, microwave, kettle, dishwasher, pots, utensils, cups, plates. Complimentary coffee and waters. Check-in and -out were simple. My only issue is that the shower did not have door or curtain, which made a bit of a mess. Overall great value for the price. We only stayed one night for stopover but I would recommend for longer stays."

Steigenberger Hotel Bielefelder Hof

10/10 Excellent

"We were staying one night, breaking up a journey from Potsdam to Calais. The hotel was excellent for our needs, spacious bedroom, great bathroom and the breakfast was the best we experienced in 9 days in Germany and Belgium. My only word of caution is that the hotel whilst ideally placed for anyone travelling by train, it is about a 10/15 minute walk from the desirable part or Bielefeld. In fact the approach to the hotel was typified by run down shops and what appeared to be experiencing hard times. That said we would seek out Steinberger hotels if we are travelling in Germany again"

CROSS INN Osnabrück by Hackmann

10/10 Excellent

"We’re staying there during the heatwave so having the AC was a must. First night the AC was not working in our room, they changed the room but it was still not working and the room was so hot. The next day we finally got the room with proper AC. The staff was responsive and helpful."

Van Der Valk Hotel Melle - Osnabrück

10/10 Excellent

"Nic quiet clean place. The staff were helpful and the breakfast/restaurant was excellent"

STAYERY Bielefeld - Hauptbahnhof & Stadthalle

10/10 Excellent
